Sherri Shepherd has filed her own legal docs for divorce ... days after her estranged husband Lamar Sally filed his own docs.

Shepherd filed for divorce in New Jersey, claiming irreconcilable differences.

TMZ broke the story ... Sally filed for legal separation May 2 ... although our sources say it will be changed to divorce as soon as Sally meets the California residency requirement in 3 months.

As we reported ... the couple is having a baby in July with a surrogate, and Sally wants full custody and wants an order prohibiting Shepherd from interfering with the birth.

Interestingly ... Shepherd makes no mention in her legal docs of custody.

As for the prenup -- which Sally wants invalidated on grounds of fraud -- Shepherd wants it enforced. The prenup provides -- if the marriage lasts between 2 and 5 years -- Sally gets $60K and that's it in the money dept.
